C F C
Rowing the campground up by the lake where we swam.
F C
We were hunting for snakes,
F C
But we couldn't find them.
C
Surrounded by nothing,
F C
But the nothing's surrounded by us.
F C
But it's just me in my room,
F C
With my eyes shut.
C C/B Am C
Oh when I was seventeen,
F C C/b
My mother said to me
Am C F C C/B
Don't stop imagining The day that you do is the day that you die.
Am C
Now I pull a wanton carriage,
F C C/B
Instead of the horses, grazing along.
Am C
I was having fun.
F C
We were all having fun.
(interlude) Am C F C (x2)
My brain kicking faster than I can,
But not fast enough.
Who is there to talk to
That won't lock me up?
At least God doesn't judge me by the thoughts that I find,
The snakes I couldn't find,
I don't want to find.
do this a few times while the drums kick in:
C C/B Am C
Ohhhhh
When I was seventeen,
My mother said to me
"Don't stop imagining. The day that you do is the day that you die."
Now I pull a wanton carriage,
Instead of the horses, grazing along.
I was having fun.
We were all having fun.
